Witnessed very stupid driving this morning.
Large BMW 4x4 metallic blue X5 - if i have that right.
At Slateford junction fully inside the Advance Stop Box in the left hand lane. ONly option there is a left turn.
THe right hand lane has a simlar black 4X4 - only option there is straight ahead.
There is a cyclist in the middle in front.
I am behind all this.
Just before the lights change the driver angles her car as if she is going left, sort of diagonal across the box. As the lights change she undertakes the cyclist going through the junction and then into the bus lane. I think he sensed she was going to do this. He was quite calm on surface. We stopped at WoL visitor centre lights so car was ahead. I asked if we should point out that the only option was a left turn. He said yes. So caught up and tapped her bonnet very lightly twice whilst looking at her and shaking my head.
We then progressed through the asda junction and she stopped with her window rolled down, in the bus lane. I said you know you cannot go straight ahead from the left lane. She said Ok, but don't touch my car again. She then departed with me shouting You nearly killed him but I have not to touch your car pxxx off. I asked my fellow cyclist if i had been angry enough, he said yes and off we went into the Edinburgh traffic jungle that is out there.
